If I made anymore I might move away.
Well if I was doing a fantasy set Cumberland Here Comes Sunshine is one fine way to start a set but hey just like in the 80's Mexicali comes to burst my
...
set list bubble But hey Mexicali in 73 is quite perky! Wave the Flag Trying to notice if Garcia uses same lyrics every time The chorus is actually all set as we now know in hindsight. So glad for a Miller Soundboard .and then also finding this board as well. Interesting factoid Springfield- a popular name for a town. Springfield ,Massachusetts Springfield, Ohio There are twenty five states with a Springfield. The Springfield riffle is How the West was really won and was used in both World Wars. When other folks give up theirs I'll give up mine" Gil Scott Heron "Peace sells but who is buying" Megadeath BIODTL-lots of good harmonies with Donna featured LOSER-always felt a little gritty & grisly with this tune Is the loser a fool or really just getting by like you and me? The harmonies are super cool. me thinks it is mainly Weir & Lesh and the refrain "I've got no chance of losing this time" drips with irony. actually that is what leads every hard core gambler to place another bet or play one last hand or pull another lever or double down. Motorhead If you like to gamble I tell you, I'm your man You win some, lose some It's all the same to me The pleasure is to play Makes no difference what you say I don't share your greed The only card I need Is the Ace of Spades The Ace of Spades Playing for the high one Dancing with the devil Going with the flow It's all a game to me Seven or eleven Snake eyes watching you Double up or quit Double stake or split The Ace of Spades The Ace of Spades You know I'm born to lose And gambling's for fools But that's the way I like it, baby I don't want to live forever And don't forget the joker Pushing up the ante I know you got to see me Read 'em and weep The dead man's hand again I see it in your eyes Take one look and die The only thing you see You know it's gonna be The Ace of Spades The Ace of Spades, uh Jack Straw-naturally goes with Loser I agree with whoever said that Jack Straw is actually a more jammed out tune later on down the road. There were a few Jack Straws in the 80's with good placement that really caused the entire night to blaze. That said the harmonies between Weir, Garcia & Lesh in that order are something to behold in 1973 "You keep us on the run" Box of Rain- just classic, the two most under valued singers in the band working their way thru Phil's song to his Father. TLEO-already a classic after two months in the rotation. Such a great dance tune El Paso-Cowboy Weir & Old West Jerry My step mom called me out on lyrics when I first tried singing El Paso she goes it is; "I picked a good one He looked like he could run" Row Jimmy-"rock your baby, to and fro" Wow-also only two months in rotation Oh this is Donna at her best. Around & Around-seems like this wasn't in regular rotation but I really like this unexpected in the first set. Weir animated on the vocals and it sounds like Jerry has perfect tone for this Berry rocker. BEW-play it at my funeral You Ain't Woman enough-Might lead to a funeral LLR-so sweet in 73 , Weir good vocally (great-3/16/73) -Second Set buzz kill tune IMHO during 80's China>Rider-kinda rare in early 73 in this set closer spot since Playin' with extended jam usually a natural here. but just wait there is a cool surprise coming this night! The China Cat Sunflower is really hot! Something a little extra special before the 'Feeling Groovy' placement leading into RIDER "March winds going to blow all my troubles away" News flash 16 song First Set-Gets me off!!!

lucky to be there
the release of the complete europe '72 has roused me from my slumber. please allow me to ramble on here since this is my first posting and i'm filled with
...
deep memories. and please feel free to correct me if i misremember. if you were there ratings are silly. hopefully you live long enough to realize how fortunate you are/were. this was my 21st birthday, nice of the dead to play in my comfort zone that night (i was going to providence college at the time), karmic reinforcement. remember hanging around the spfld civic center all afternoon on a beautiful early spring day. remember going on a beer run, perhaps my first experience with bass ale. general admission in those days, i remember being carried through the front doors with my feet off the ground - scary, and always linked in my mind with the who crush in cinci '79. also remember rushing into general admission boston garden during wall of sound days trying to get close. as far as set list/music is concerned, i must admit to a foggy memory. the EVENT was the thing! by the time the music started , the memory banks were compromised by outside agents. do remember this was my first dark star i believe( my 1st show being providence arena 4/21/71), and i remember being surprised that they would play it, at the time we believed it to be a song we would only hear on live dead. other than that i will only say how great it felt to be a part of the tribe that night. 5 stars for every show i saw until the 90's. so much for my critical credibility. i'd be more than happy to engage in a dialogue about my experiences with the boys at this site, rather than limit us all to solitary erudition. help me remember or just tell me to shut up. thanks y'all.

Just LOVE "They Love Each Other"!
I'm so happy to have found this concert! I had a vinyl bootleg back in the day, white cover with (I think) an amateur version of Mr. Natural on it, and
...
"They Love Each Other" from this show. I've always loved this up tempo version and was disappointed when they switched to the slower and more draggy version, which was the way I heard them do it when first saw shows in '76. No idea when or why they started doing it slower but I intend to find out! Now to listen to the rest of the show, which if as good as this number I'm sure deserves the full 5 stars.

My 1st

or something. Not to worry, apparently. This night was truly memorable. I was 15 and familiar w/ Workingman's, American Beauty, Europe 72, and snippets from Live Dead. The music they played opened up new synaptic pathways in my brain.Thereafter whenever I was bored with stuff going on in school or whatever I would literally 'tune out' and start to hear random improvised music in my head. I could turn it on any time. I credit the Dead with so empowering me. Later I started to play actual music w/ friends and used the Dead as inspiration for much jamming. Saw many shows after that but this one stands as the one to which I compared the others. Never really surpassed I must say. I loved the way they used to get so weird using only rudimentary effect pedals. Jerry used a Crybaby Wah-Wad and Keith had a volume pedal for his piano. Even when they got all that MIDI stuff I don't think they were able to get any further out there than they did in those days. Kinda like the Apollo Space Program , ya know? I mean they throw all that money at NASA and we still ain't been back to the moon.

Yes folks.....another gem slips by the wayside because of the "AUD" moniker. However WRS Prelude>Dark Star>Eyes>Playin>JBG is of SDBD quality
...
and is the SHIT! The jazzy feel of this Dark Star is so real. They explore at least 5 or 6 completely different themes and when they finally finish 30minutes has passed. Dark Star morphs into Eyes and then comes mind-bender #2.......PLAYIN! Can someone explain how Jerry could have so much musical inspiration in a 1 hour peiod?! Beutiful notes are spewing out of his guitar in exponential fashion. GET THE SDBD PORTION!!
